‼️UNFORTUNATELY WE’VE HAD TO CANCELLED THIS MONTHS SESSION‼️

💚See you in December

🌳 A Reminder About "Forests for All" 🌳

🌳We want to make sure everyone understands who our "Forest for All" sessions are designed for!
🌳This group is open to any child who needs additional support in an outdoor setting.
🌳 This is a very broad category, and you absolutely do not need a formal diagnosis for your child to join us.

Who is this for?
🌈Children with diagnosed needs like ADHD, Autism, or Down Syndrome.
🌈Children who may have undiagnosed developmental delays including learning difficulties
🌈 Children learning English as a Second Language (EAL).
🌈 Children who experience anxiety about social interactions or joining outdoor groups
🌈Or any diagnosis that impacts development

💚Essentially, if you feel your child could benefit from a supportive, inclusive outdoor environment, they are welcome.
💚While we welcome families from across the city and further afield, our current funding is specifically allocated to the South East of Edinburgh (specifically the EH16/EH17 postcode areas).
💚If you live outside of this impact area, we kindly ask for a donation to help us cover the running costs and continue offering this valuable session to the wider community.
💚This session runs thanks to the support of Thrive Outdoors and in collaboration with the The Very Inclusive Play Club & Bridgend Farmhouse
💚If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out!
🛖Please note as the weather gets cooler and wetter we have an amazing indoor Eco Bothy which we can use if needed!
